    I think that this is a very nice early Republic period Kwanyin. It's been cast and hand-modeled, partially. The hand is missing, but that's often the case as it was cast as a separtate piece. I really like the flowing of her robes. I found this and some other really interesting pieces in the trash in front of this old Buddhist temple in my neighborhood the other day.
